Call Number Quiz
Put the following Library of Congress call numbers in order:
a) HF5415.5 .C67 1995
b) HF5412.5 .S93 1989
c) BZ63.3 .A54 1997 vol. 2
d) HF5415.25 .C67 1995
e) BZ63.3 .A54 1997 vol. 1
Did you say e, c, b, d, a? Good for you! If you came up with a different order, you might want to review the LC classification system: https://www.indiana.edu/~libcasd/lc/lc.html. An alternative to clicking this URL would be to ask your supervisor to go over call numbers with you.
Putting returned books in call number order is part of your job if you're sitting in the 1st mate's chair. If you continually do it wrong, Terry may pull her hair out. And you don't want that. So please check out the URL or ask your supervisor if the call number classification system isn't clear to you. No doubt about it, call numbers can be tricky.
